TOKYO (Reuters) – Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said on Friday structural reforms must accompany fiscal and monetary stimulus measures to heighten the economy’s long-term growth potential.
He also told parliament the central bank’s ultra-loose monetary policy is aimed at achieving its 2% inflation target, not at helping government fund its spending.
